Rick Karsdorp comments on how the arrival of the Portuguese coach to Roma has changed him

The landing of José Mourinho to Roma has generated a positive impact on some of the footballers of the ‘giallorossa’ squad. The Dutch side, Rick Karsdorp is a clear example, because under the tutelage of the Portuguese he has established himself as a starter and therefore does not hesitate to entertain his coach.

“Mourinho has brought out the best in me. Normally before I liked to go out at night to have a few drinks, but now that doesn’t happen anymore. What made me leave my country to play abroad was precisely a project like that of Roma. Here in Rome, they leave you privacy. Of course they approach me on the street, but in general the fans do not exaggerate. Let’s imagine I’m going to dinner. They wait for me to finish and only then ask for an autograph or a photo, “he explained in Voetbal.

Karsdorp has started all but one of Roma’s Serie A games (18), which was lost by suspension to Inter, while in the Conference League he rested against Zorya and Bodo / Glimt.
